Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized Zucchini
- 1 15-ounce can Canned cannellini beans
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 small Red onion
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the zucchini and chop off the ends. Use a vegetable peeler or mandoline slicer to create thin ribbons of zucchini. Place the ribbons in a large salad bowl.
Rinse and drain the canned cannellini beans thoroughly and add them to the bowl with the zucchini.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and finely dice the red onion. Add both to the salad bowl.
Chop the parsley into small pieces and sprinkle it over the salad for a fresh, herby flavor.
Crumble the feta cheese and add it to the salad bowl for a creamy, tangy touch.
In a small jar or bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Shake the jar or whisk the ingredients until the vinaigrette is well combined.
Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and gently toss all the ingredients together to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to let the flavors meld. Enjoy!
